Brogan Bentley set to release snake-obsessed debut called The Snake on Leaving Records

Have you ever loved something so much that it goes beyond passion and into obsession? You know, like that time you got heaps into numerology and you changed your name slightly by giving it a weird spelling like Brrad or Jaaninee and would only leave the house if the numbers aligned? Well Brogan Bentley is obsessive about snakes. How obsessed? Well…

1. He has named his debut album The Snake;

2. He recorded the album during the Year of the Snake in the Chinese Zodiac;

3. The Snake is filled with smooth yet menacing minimalist electro sounds and Brogan’s breathy, serpentine vocals; and

4. Brogan has set the release date for 11/11, because it’s a palindrome which apparently mimics the serpent (I’m not that steeped in snake facts to know exactly how or why this bears relevance).

Brogan continues the snake comparisons in his own words, describing The Snake as “a sonic documentation of coming into new skin, living in it and shedding it.”

If that’s not enough to get you totally pumped about this album, check out the lead single “The Difference” and picture yourself in a tank of snakes. The Snake will be available via Leaving Records and Stones Throw on November 11.
